When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

Hi wantingagoodlife,
Hi wantingagoodlife,
I remember some discomfort when first starting the posture and exercise, especially my hips, upper and lower back, but I was also trying to force the posture too much, and had to learn to relax into it. If you are keeping your belly relaxed and chest pulled up, you should start to feel a difference. It does take time though. I know I spent years maintaining a very bad posture, so It took time to mold my body back into the correct one.
Give yourself breaks when your body is getting tired, and especially don't force it to the point of pain.

Posture
I cannot say enough about WW posture. I feel so good, my chronic cough rarely flares up. I get compliments all the time on my posture. My back and hips don't hurt much anymore and best of all my prolapse hasn't become worse. It has taken 3 years.
At my Y exercise classes, I do WW exercises when the rest of the class are doing sit ups.

Thanks Watergirl
Thanks for checking in, and sharing your success. This is a good reminder that once we are living in the posture, we can make our own decisions about exercise, knowing what is and isn't good for us. You don't have to stay home and exercise alone. You can go out to a class and do the moves in posture, and if something just isn't good, you do something else. Good for you and keep it up! - Surviving

Posture
I hurt more in the beginning also. I was trying too hard. Just pull up at the chest and everything will fall into place without trying. Use your buttock and upper legs for getting up from sitting. Squats are great, push way back with buttocks and keep your back in WW posture. Use your upper legs, not your back. You will get stronger and stronger.
